Hi

"FT2" is much more critical on DT timing since the decode sync has to happen within 500ms of the start of the receive period. This is compared to 1 sec for FT4 so the PC clock settings are even more critical than before. Also you often see signals in the waterfall that are not decoding because they just too late in the actual UTC period.

 

I started using JTsync to adjust my local clock and found this useful to catch more decodes but as this needs to be a little more dynamic than JTsync allows I've written a small app that is focussed on being able to do adjustments more easily and adjust back and forth as needed dynamically. Sorry its only for Win x64 but I hope it helps someone.

 

App installer at: https://github.com/Rich5252/RTCupdate/tree/master/Setup1/AppInstallerFiles

Code is there too (c#).

 

Have fun with FT2 (or whatever we finish up calling it!)
